Well, I can't believe that tomorrow is a new year! It is hard to believe that 2007 is over. I hope that each of you had a nice Christmas! We had family on my dad's side to come to our house. That included 13 people and two dogs. We had a wonderful Christmas this year. It was much calmer than last year. Last year part of our family came down with the stomach virus and it was not a pretty sight. I enjoy family so much especially since I am an only child. This year we did not even cook at home. We ended up going out to eat both days which was a nice break for my mom.

Another highlight was my birthday was yesterday and I turned 30. Very hard for me to believe but I am excited for a new decade. This weekend I am having a party to really celebrate the momentous number!

I hope each of you have a wonderful new year and I know that I want to make 2008 the best year possible and do everything I can to serve the Lord more.

Well, this has been a busy week. Right now I am working on letter number 4 that we send out in December. Along with that we are sending out our christmas orders and other materials that people have requested. On top of everything I went with my parents to Dallas this past weekend for a conference and also to help with the taping we did on the topic of dating the book of Revelation. That went very well. It was so cold in Dallas and they almost got some ice. It was foggy and cloudy every day we were there.

This weekend my mom and I are singing in our choir for the christmas musical at our church and also we are trying to finish last minute details for Christmas. After this weekend we have one more taping we are doing as a follow up to the debate we taped this past weekend. That will be on Wednesday. So, needless to say it is going to be busy up until Christmas.

One thing that was very interesting this past weekend was that many people at the conference (which was a pre-trib conference) were there because of our program. It was so neat to hear all the stories of how our program has changed lives through the years.

Well, here it is a few weeks before Christmas. It is hard to believe that it is the end of the year. This year, my mom and I started early on shopping and we only have two people left. One of them happens to be my dad. I know that might be suprising but he is a hard person to buy for.

This weekend we are going to Dallas for a pre-trib conference that we are helping out with. We are taking some of our staff so I hope that you will pray for us as we go!

This is a busy time at the office. In the month of December we do three mailings and a gift ot our top givers. So, I am halfway through with all the mailings and gifts that we send out. That does not include the regular orders and christmas orders that we send out. The key is to stay on top of everything.

Well, I wish you well in shopping and all your plans for this wonderful Christmas holiday!
